You possibly can even get some wrong and still have a perfect score
because some questions may NOT be scored.

That's just great. Just had to throw that in there didn't you?! As if
this thing isn't confusing enough! ;)

Comptia may include "experimental questions" for possible inclusion on
future tests. You aren't scored for these. Read the few pages that you
must agree to before starting the actual test timer. You'll see that
I'm not kidding.

CompTIA intentionally made the scoring system incomprehensible. Just to
confuse you even more, the scale is non-linear. If you miss four
questions you're more likely to get 650 than 875.
